An entanglement measure for n qubits

Abstract: In Phys. Rev. A 61, 052306 (2000), Coffman, Kundu and Wootters introduced the residual entanglement for three qubits. In this paper, we present the entanglement measure τ (ψ) for even n qubits; for odd n qubits, we propose the residual entanglement τ (i) (ψ) with respect to qubit i and the odd n-tangle R(ψ) by averaging the residual entanglement with respect to each qubit. In this paper, we show that these measures are LUinvariant, entanglement monotones, invariant under permutations of the qubits, and multipl… Show more

“…An example of a nonlinear 1-E function, satisfying (4), is E (N ) (e 1 ) = λ 1−N (e 1 ) N , λ ∈ R + . Indeed for λ = 1 this describes a multiplicative measure E (N ) (e 1 ) = (e 1 ) N as in the case of the pure-state entanglement measure defined in [17,18] for N even. We will have more to say about the solutions of (4) later.…”

“…(1.7) is considered as the residual entanglement for odd n qubits in [23] and [26]. From the above discussion, we can say that for odd n qubits, |GHZ possess the maximal residual entanglement τ = 1 while the residual entanglement τ for the Dicke states |l, n vanishes.…”

“…For instance, in ref. 19 through a Ramsey fringe-type interference experiment that preserves the quantum state up to a relative phase factor, it was prepared an equal weighted state. On the other hand, in experimental Heisenberg spin chains, the equally weighted superposition of all different localized valence-bond states would correspond to a quantum spin liquid, the so-called resonating valence-bond state [20,21].…”
